What do you expect from the Duelist?

High DPS low hp. Fast and agile character.

It's the playstyle I prefer. I mained assassin when D2LOD came out.

I expect Tanky Dps.

I expect a frontline fighter that is able to dish out damage, but can't absorb everything.

I'll probably try to use this class when the game comes out or if I get the beta key... Hoping that Duelist will be like Trojan from Conquer or rogue or something similar: ATK + ATK Speed Build Char

Looking forward to a hit and run type of character.

I think im going to play duelist, but i hope he is not stuck to dual-wielded melee weapons.

I would appreciate to just rage into groups of enemies with a claymore or bastard sword. Luckily, weapons like this were shown in the Duelist Videos, so that's cool.

He's gonna be a Glass Cannon. He can dish out the pain, but can't really take it.

It's a good thing he has high dex to evade all them attacks.

I'm liking this one.

A Duelist sound like it would benefit from being a combo type attacker, like each attack could stack a small debuff that only benefits the Duelist, and the more that he could stick to a single target the more devastating he could be. Alternatively make them global debuffs to allow for a very group oriented battle.

Just my two cents

The Duelist reminds me of Andrzej Sapkowski's The Witcher. Moves fast, is a damn good with a sword (most often a two-handed sword) and keeps himself in a light load to get out of harm's way. And there's lots of harm in The Witcher multiverse.

I'm curious if it's possible to make a witcher-like character out of The Duelist?
Fast, mobile, deadly with a big sword.

I want fast swishy animations with a lot of added effects to give me a seizure while I play.

Definitely the class I will be playing. Love close quarter combat without being a tank!
